Farming Preparations

  1. Identify the Best Source: The Sources below are generally ranked from best to worst. Make sure to complete any required quests and be aware of Source Restrictions.
  2. Locate the Source: Make sure you have unlocked the Location.
  3. Equip Your Character: Equip your character to easily overcome enemies.

Bonus Tips

  • Speed it up: Explore shortcuts and boost your movement speed to minimize travel time. Also, aim to shorten your time to kill with higher DPS or big damage bursts.
